shekhar_mittal - 1-JUL-2010
Hi Folks I am shifting Delhi from Bangalore and so was looking of ways to move my personal stuff from Bangalore to Delhi. I dont have a lot of stuff so it does not make sense to hire a container myself. I had 3 carton boxes and a bike. I was wondering whether it is possible to send all this stuff through train. While I know that sending the bike is possible, is it also possible that one sends the carton boxes by train as well? 1. Has anyone tried it before? 2. Is it efficient and dependable? is it cheaper than road transport? -Shekhar |

Sent this email to Public relations officer of South Western Railway. If you too are a believer in potential of Commuter Rail, please join in, and email the PRO. More the better. Here is what I sent, can be used as your template. To, Chief Public Relations Officer, South Western Railway, Hubli Dear Sir, Ever Since RITES CTTP recommended commuter rail service for Bangalore, we have been waiting for action from South Western Railway. Recently, we have been hearing a lot about Circular Railway and Commuter Rail services for Bangalore Metropolitan Area. Could you please clarify if SWR is considering working on either of these projects. Please also clarify on the difference between Circular and Commuter Rail. |

Local Trains vs Circular Rail For Bangalore Sanjeev - 8-APR-2010
Analysis of last three months discussion and media briefing by Shri MoS K H Muniyappa and CM Yeddiyurappa shows that MoS is favouring Circular Rail and CM is talking of Local Trains similar to Mumbai. Now we will see one more round of study by SWR / Railways for Circular Railway and wasting time on this. RITES study on Local Trains is not considered by MoS K H Muniyappa and no one is talking of this. Do any one have the details on Circular Rail what MoS K H Muniyappa is talking. We from Praja need to do some serious work so that both proposal Local Trains and Circular Train services are sanctioned for Bangalore.
